What is the point of us?

[04 Jan 2007]

Discovery Channel has a short filler that asks a good fundamental question: There is a point to vegetation (it provides oxygen from CO2) and animals (as predators/prey, and cleaners), but what is the point of humans?

There is a great thought piece in the New Scientist, Imagine Earth without people. Don’t miss the graphic that is linked from it.
